Kenshouji

Kenshouji is a Nichiren Buddhist temple established in the early Edo period. Located in a corner of Mukojima, a geisha district, it has long served as a spiritual support for the local community. While cherishing traditions that have continued since the Edo period, the temple still welcomes many visitors today as a shrine rooted in the neighborhood. The serene and peaceful atmosphere of the grounds allows visitors to forget the hustle and bustle of the city and purify their hearts. The flowers of each season are beautiful, and one can offer prayers while feeling the passage of the seasons.
